Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a method for locating mobile stations in a digital telecommunication network, especially the GSM network. According to the invention, reference measurements are carried out on relevant traffic routes with the aid of a measuring mobile in order to provide position information related to measured signals. With the aid of these reference data and the position information, an adaptive neural network is trained, which network, with the aid of corresponding measurement data which are transmitted from the mobile station to a respective base station, carries out the localisation of the mobile station. Use of the adaptive neural network provides a more accurate position determination than earlier systems which were only based on the TA (timing advance) value.
